DWYC, broadcasting as Radyo5 88.7 News FM Cabanatuan was an FM radio station owned by Nation Broadcasting Corporation and operated by TV5 in the Philippines. The station's studio is located at Brgy. Poblacion, Cabanatuan.
History
In 1984, 88.7 was born as MRS - "Most Requested Song" which featured soft pop, ballads, fairly adult contemporary. MRS 92.3 quickly became one of the top rated stations on FM and kept that distinction throughout most of its life, MRS was one of a handful of FM stations in Manila that defined the very popular adult contemporary format for a long time.
The company took on new owners in the mid-90's when the Yabut family sold the whole network (both FM and AM) to then real estate magnate Manny Villar. The station managed to maintain its original format without any changes.
In 1998, NBC was acquired by MediaQuest Holdings Inc. (which now subsidiary of the telecom giant, Philippine Long Distance Telephonce Company). With the new owners came a new management team, a new corporate logo and a new sound.
MRS was replaced by "Donna" in 1998. It played a mix of jazz fusion, pop jazz and crossover sound, with a little more of the European jazz flavor.
In 2005, the Rhythms tag was dropped in favor of 88.7 Donna - Get your groove on.
Since February 21, 2011, it began simulcasting Manila's Radyo5 92.3 News FM, but it lasted until June later that year due to its frequency conflicts.
